The Fantastic Four: Cast Update

The Fantastic Four will be back for the third time in less than 20 years — and we now have some casting developments. Marvel announced in February that it would be remaking the comic into a live-action story.

Set to star in the film are Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us), Vanessa Kirby (Pieces of a Woman), Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things), and Ebon Moss-Bacharach (The Bear).

Pascal is set to play Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic), Kirby will play the role that Jessica Alba made famous — The Invisible Woman, Sue Storm — Quinn will star as the Human Torch, and Moss-Bacharach will play The Thing.

Two months ago, Deadline reported that two well-known actors had also joined the cast of The Fantastic Four — Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll) and John Malkovich (Being John Malkovich). Deadline‘s report followed an ET exclusive report that Paul Walter Hauser (Black Bird) had also been cast in the film.

The Fantastic Four will kickstart MCU’s Phase 6 and is set for a July 25, 2025 premiere.
